If you have a custom domain registered with wordpress.com that you'd like to use with your oily.life site instead, here are the instructions for making the DNS changes

  1. On your wordpress.com site, go to your domain management (My Site → Manage→ Domains)
  2. Click on your domain, then choose "Change your name servers and DNS records"
  3. Find the current A record and click the trash can next to it
  4. Click the "add new DNS Record" button. 
  5. Choose Type: A and under "points to" enter: 52.204.1.2
  6. Save your changes
  7. Right me back here and I'll finish setup
